We chose to park in the garage across the street. No one informed us that the skybridge was closed on weekends which made accessing our car a big problem. Your staff should be fully aware and competent on how a guest can gain entry to the garage on weekends.

Pool was great for my grandkids. Hot tub was down didn’t get proper notification. Other than that it was close to Mall within walking distance. First time in Minnesota I would go back to this Place
